Question fashion photography for commercial use

I've been contacted by a fashion designer to take 30 photos of their clothing line for commericial use. My question is, how much should I charge for this type of project. I didn't prepare myself for this type of inquiry but hoping that some of you have experience and could lend me some advice. Thanks in advance.

I'm a king size bed and the altercation of being polarised by google translate I wasn't unbrided, myself.

Should I outcriminate or in?

Oh and should you need your own criminating, you need to make your own thread instead of hijacking someone else's. Be careful you don't stitch yourself, though.
